Clearance: Reset History

Chapter 71 Trading

No matter if you depart from the capital or Fujian, this trip is considered a long-distance trip. The boat is floating on the water, and the conditions are not good enough to rest. Although everyone doesn't say it, they are actually very tired, except for the guards who have to be on duty. The eunuchs and the maids and eunuchs who had to watch the night tried their best to support it, and everyone else basically just touched the pillows. Nothing happened all night, and the night was quiet until dawn.

At dawn, the inn became lively.

Yinfeng got up refreshed and went downstairs.

At this time, there were quite a few people downstairs, and they were all dining energetically. It seemed that they all had a good rest last night.

When everyone saw Yinreng, they hurriedly greeted him, and after they shouted, they pulled up chairs and set meals and got busy.

Yinfeng looked around, but he didn't see Yinfeng, and felt puzzled——from before, Yinfeng always got up earlier than him, so he asked Lan Li, who was eating raw fried rice happily, "General Lan, Have you seen Big Brother?"

Lan Li was shocked in an instant, and swallowed a fried pancake without chewing it, and then his face turned red from choking, and he couldn't say anything.

Yinreng frowned, thinking what kind of subordinates Baoqing would take here, and at the same time beckoning Xiaoxizi to pass a glass of water quickly.

After drinking the water and putting down the raw fried food, Lan Li's complexion finally returned to normal.

"Grandpa asked you something!"

Yinfeng's tone of asking this question was already very impatient, but Lan Li's face was blank, as if he didn't hear anything at all.

Yinfeng's face darkened.

Just at this time, Zhanlu came down from upstairs. Seeing the scene in front of him, he immediately made a good guess, and hurried forward to plead guilty. I also ask the prince to forgive me!"

Seeing Zhan Lu, Yinfeng no longer held on to Lan Li - after all, it was because he couldn't find Zhan Lu that he asked the person who came with Baoqing in the first place.

"Where's Big Brother? Why didn't you come down for breakfast?"

"Back to the prince, the master has already used it. But because the young master is sick, the master is visiting the young master in his room, and the slaves are also going to get the medicine."

Zheng Er is sick?Yinfeng was a little strange at first, but after thinking about how many times the other party took cold showers last night, it suddenly dawned on him, but he still didn't forget what happened just now, so he said "find someone to teach General Lanli how to speak official Chinese", and then I went upstairs alone.

Zheng Keshun was really sick this time, his face was flushed, his eyes were closed tightly, and he was almost in a semi-conscious state.When Yinreng entered the room, the doctor had just left, and Yinreng was tucking him in the quilt.

"If Zheng Er knew that you were helping him tuck the quilt so gently, he would be moved to tears."

Yinfeng folded his arms and stood half leaning against the door frame for a long while before opening his mouth leisurely.

After imagining that scene, Yinyi shuddered, and looked at Zheng Keshuang again, and he was relieved to make sure that the other party still closed his eyes and didn't see it. He turned around and began to chase people away, "Why are you here too? Hurry up, don't give up Got sick."

"It's true that Baoqing is not afraid of getting sick." Yinfeng sneered, but stepped into the room instead, "I still don't understand what I said, why are you so nice to this idiot?"

Just let it fend for itself, the royal people don't want to meddle in their own business.Yinfeng was a little bit incomprehensible and dissatisfied.

To be honest, if it wasn't for the elder brother who had greeted people in the capital in advance, it would be hard to say whether Zheng Keshuang would be able to return to Taiwan.Even if they are as stupid as pigs, in many cases, whether there is such a mascot is very important to whether they are justified or not.

"They are all poor children, why should I make things difficult for him."

"He is about to get married, what kind of child is he, but our brother is the child?"

"You..." Yinfeng squeezed the cheek that Yinfeng approached, "Are you jealous?"

"Humph!"

"Okay, let's do it," Yinfei took the cold snort as a default, and touched the slippery head of the other party, "We don't have to do business today, how about my brother serving the crown prince in Shanghai County for a day?"

"That's more or less the same." Yinreng raised his chin proudly, "Xiao Qingzi, let's serve you breakfast first!"

Yin Yin smiled sullenly, lowered his head, and said in a very polite way: "Hey."

After Yinfeng finished his breakfast, he and Yinfeng took a few guards out for a walk.

It has been more than a year since Yinbi came out, and I dare not say anything else, but he has practiced the best sightseeing skills everywhere, and now he has almost reached the point where he will never get lost even if he is alone in a strange place. Talking and laughing, eating and drinking, occasionally sitting down to drink tea and have a snack is leisurely, and the day will pass quickly.

Looking at the things brought by the guards behind him, recalling what Yinfeng said about the person who brought the gift, Yinfeng realized belatedly, he seemed to have forgotten to bring something for his Khan Ama a while ago?

Forget it, just forget it, I guess Long Live Lord doesn't care about our little shit.Yin Yin thought about it and put it behind him.

On the third day, Yinfeng Yinfeng sat in the backyard of the inn, brewed a pot of good tea, and finally started talking about business.

Yinfeng first asked Zhang Qian to explain why the Foreign Affairs Bureau needed Deng Rongzu.

Yinbi was unmoved when he heard this, "Baocheng, I don't know what you said, but the Fujian Navy is even more worrying now. You also know that Wei Zhun specialized in shipbuilding when he was in Western Ocean. Yes, judging from his description, there is already a gap between the navy of the Qing Dynasty and the navy of the West. Although you and I dare not say that you have read the classics and history collections, you still have the most basic common sense. My Qing Dynasty is the strongest in the world It is a big country, and now the west is rising very fast, so a major change of blood for the Fujian Navy is also imperative, to put it bluntly, that is much more important than Laoshizi's maritime trade."

"Maritime trade was approved by Khan Ama, and your idea of ​​​​changing blood for the navy should be put out as soon as possible. Khan Ama has long been interested in the north, you don't know, not to mention that the south is now safe, he must not want to Bleeding on the navy, if you don’t believe me, send someone to the capital to inquire about it, and the household department has spare money for you to adjust the navy.”

"I know, I know, but Baocheng, don't you get a fat job? I've heard Uncle Nalan say that tea, silk and porcelain from the Qing Dynasty are rare in the West. It's really troublesome to go to Europa, so that's fine." Not to mention going to Europa, but just going to make a deal with that East India Company, and take a walk. The profit in it will have to be multiplied several times, and after deducting other capital losses, there will be five or six times the profit. Prince, a little leakage between your fingers is enough for us to enjoy ourselves for a while."

Yinfeng almost lifted the table, "Master Emotion came all the way here, but he didn't care about it, but he sent you money?!"

"We are brothers, don't worry about it."

"You still have the nerve to say it! I'm your own younger brother. You're so calculating... In fact, I have felt it since before, but now it seems that your thick skin seems to be better!"

Yinfei made a resentful expression: "You don't understand, Baocheng, you don't understand... here, brother can't get along without being thick-skinned!"

The corner of Yinfeng's mouth twitched, "Baoqing, you'd better go back to the palace, if this goes on, I'm afraid that there will be a gangster in Qing Dynasty..."

"What's wrong with hooligans? My mother said that hooligans are not scary, but I am afraid that hooligans are educated. I will be a cultural hooligan that everyone fears!"

Concubine Hui, what did you teach Baoqing?By the way, what are you mother and son talking about so that you can get involved with the hooligans?Yinfeng covered his face silently, and began to worry about the little Qi Xiaoba raised under the name of Concubine Hui, those two were obedient and soft,

Will it really not be taught badly?And Grandpa's big sister, no wonder she's so tough!

Zhang Qian turned his head silently from the side, the two masters, I digressed!Well, I didn't hear anything!

"Gentlemen, the grassroots actually have an idea."

"Say!"

"If you want to tell the grassroots, in fact, the reconstruction of the Fujian Navy is not in a hurry, but the matter of earning money is actually quite urgent. After all, many things can only be done with money, whether it is war or other things, especially when it comes to war. But it’s a money-consuming job, to put it too exaggeratedly, it’s like eating the vain money as a meal.” Zhang Qian said with a painful expression, “Every time I see the common people planting and doing things that are worth thousands of dollars. I don’t know about it, I’m so sorry! Also, do you two masters know how the silver in the West came from? It’s all stained with blood. Instead of letting the group of butchers with blood on their hands use the silver, Why don't we use it ourselves, at least the road is correct. Besides, since we are going to do it, of course we have to do it thoroughly. What is it if we only send it to India? How can we go directly to Europa if it is exposed by the East India Company? Peel people's skin"

Looking at the face of the other party as a profiteer, it was Yin Yin's turn to be speechless this time.By the way, Baocheng, how much better can you make people than you?

"But big brother won't let him go now, so what can we do?" Yinfeng glanced at Yinfeng while talking.

"Actually, Caomin hasn't said one thing. Although Shanghai County is small, after two days of observation and measurement by Caomin, it is really a rare deep-water port. The reason why the elder brother didn't let him go was because he was afraid that we would leave Weizhun In the capital city, after all, if Long Live God makes an order, even the elder brother will not go back, thus delaying the reconstruction of the Fujian Navy. How about this, we will set up two shipyards in Shanghai between the capital city and Fuzhou, Set up a commercial shipyard for civilian use first, and when we have money, we will set up a warship yard for military use. If you really don’t want to wait, brother, we can directly build warships. It’s not uncommon for Westerners to use warships as merchant ships. If you put on a layer of skin, it can represent the royal government, but if you peel off a layer of skin, it will be a group of pirates and bandits! It would be best to return the same way to him.”

"Using Chuan's strategy, how does Baoqing feel?"

"Let me think."

Zhang Qian's proposal is still good.Although warship business is a bit risky, it shouldn't be a big problem to send a clan on board or something.Besides, the requirements for ships are very high during war. If you don’t want to be perfect, you must at least have no defects, and improvement also requires money. Why don’t you test the waters with the Foreign Affairs Bureau first, and you will definitely have more experience when you start building warships for military use. Can avoid a lot of detours.

"Okay, as Yong Chuan said, set up a shipyard in Shanghai, but directly build warships, and the warships will be commercially available at that time." Yinfeng paused here, and then looked at Yinfeng, "I will give you the manpower for the shipbuilding. You look for it, but I will take [-]% of the profit when the time comes."

"Aixinjue Luo Yinyi, don't go too far!"

"It's only [-]%. Don't be too stingy, the prince. Besides, it's inconvenient for the prince to leave Beijing. The brother of the shipyard here will definitely take care of you."

"Hmph, if something goes wrong at the shipyard here, the only way is to get Khan Ama to transfer you back to the capital! Yongchuan, let's go!"

Although Yinfeng's words were harsh, but at the same time, he agreed to the conditions Yinfeng set out.

"Hey, that's right." Yinfeng suddenly stopped Yinfeng with a smile.

"what happened again?"

"Help me, prince, take Lanli back, that guy is really uneducated!"

"Why do you still want to bring you a bear child?!" Yin Reng's forehead was bouncing, there was Zheng Keshuang in front of him, and then there was Lan Li, who still doesn't know how to speak official Chinese!

"Ah, if not my master stuffed him into Qing Xia's Wu Bei Zhai, I'll tell Uncle Rong Ruo."

"Huh." Yinfeng snorted coldly, and as a response, he strode out of the yard.

After leaving the yard, Zhang Qian didn't understand, "My lord, Caomin don't understand why you gave big brother such a big profit?"

"Didn't you do as you said?"

"But Cao Min doesn't think Brother Wei Zhun deserves a 1% profit concession." Zhang Qian felt very distressed, it was [-]% of the total profit, not one tael or [-] tael, the elder brother could get it almost without doing anything [-]% of the profit, the business lost a lot, "Although Wei Zhun has some talents in shipbuilding and has put in a lot of effort, you don't have to rely on him. I have so many shipbuilders in the Qing Dynasty. Counting, so many people can always solve the problem together. More importantly, I have never seen Wei Zhun, so how can I be sure that it is worth [-]% of the profit?"

"The [-]% of the profit is not because of Deng Weizhun. It's the ocean."

Zhang Qian tilted his head, still a little puzzled.

Yinfeng didn't want to explain any more, and finally said: "Forget it, you can go about your own business."

"Yes, the grassroots leave."

After Zhang Qian stepped back, Yinreng looked into the yard again.

Yinbi was washing teacups with tweezers, but he just raised his head because he felt something in his heart.

The four eyes collided, as if they understood each other's thoughts in an instant.

——What you think is also what I hope, encourage and support each other.
